Lyrics
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
Today the thought of leaving you wandered through my mindAnd all the sleeping memories that we madeI’ve thought about the love we knew that one day upped and diedIt wasn’t even strong enough to fadeSoon as I am strong enough I pull myself awayYour little love mean long enough and hurt me anywayThen you come to me and stay and love me one more time I changed my mindI’ve been good and true to you but you don’t even careI’d be better off if you just turn and goneBut then I’ve thought of losin’ you is more than I can bearYes I am too weak to make it on my ownSoon as I am strong enoughI changed my mind
